Some minor news, source Roadrunner Records:

Sharon Den Adel, has revealed that Where Is The Edge, the new track which the band revealed last week, doesn’t give the full picture of forthcoming album The Unforgiving.

In a post on the band’s website, Sharon writes: “From the moment we started writing this album we felt it was time for change, to take a bigger step in our musical development then we’ve done with the last two albums…’The Unforgiving’ is the album with the most diversity between the songs then ever before. Containing the heaviest riffs we’ve ever played, lots of uptempo moments, guitar-solo’s, but at the same time also some of the most catchy stuff ever.”

Sharon goes on to reveal that the band plan to share more music with the world pretty soon, “Soon we’ll release ‘”The Unforgiving Video-Trailer” containing parts of different songs, the music video’s and… (more about this 3rd ingredient laterrr)…” she teases.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep!!!!!!
I can't fuckin wait for the whole album! So close, yet so far! I feel like a fuckin addict! My mind and ear drums wants to overdose on some Within Temptation right now!!!! Can't help it, lol!

New album cover.



Can't say I'm a fan of it.

Bloody hell, that is fugly. I'm sorry, but I expected the album to be theirs and not completely surrounding the bloody comic.

It looks to me like a movie poster than an album cover.It doesn't exactly look like a typical WT cover I can't say I like or dislike,I'm more of neutral.But I still have high hopes that the album will sound great

Fuck! Look, I can bet my fuckin life that the songs are going to be fuckin amazing, the whole album's going to fuckin rock. I'm not worried about that whatsoever. But the cover!? REALLY!? Don't get me wrong, the actual cover is pretty sick looking, love the format, the style, everything's actually pretty fuckin cool and it's actually PERFECT...but for a fuckin COMIC BOOK cover, not so much at all for a MUSIC ALBUM cover! *calm down* *sigh* Good thing is you guys have 'till March for the release so just grab that cover, crumple it up, throw it away, and do another cover with either Sharon and/or the guys on it, like MOST of your albums have been. You can even have this same theme of this comic book cover, but substitute the animated characters, instead, with Sharon and the guys. Trust me, it'll keep that comic-book theme AND it will have the actual members in the cover looking all badass and whatnot. It's doable. So like I've said, it's perfect for a comic book cover but not for a music album cover.

I'm not mad, just disappointed cause I know they can do a lot better with their cover, that's all. But other than the cover dilemma, every passing day we get closer to the release I get even more stoked about it and I cannot wait to listen to it!

I love the cover! seriously i do i'm a little fan of comic stuff myself so i love this!

^See?! That's what I thought! I suggested in the other thread that it would be better if the animated characters were the band members.
Maybe if we post our disapproving comments on the post on their website, they'll rethink it? I really...gosh. I hate to say that I don't like it, but I just don't for an album cover.

I don't like the cover as well... I hate comics, so it makes it all even worse.
I just hope the music itself will be good, cause really everything concerning WT has been so weird for me lately..

Well, I think it's okay.
I asked myself: So what did you expect? It's all based on comics so the cover has to be something like that to fit the concept.
But I'd found it cool if they would have been dressed up as the comic characters. Sharon as Sinead etc.
